Dinh Le, winner of the 2007 APPT Macau Main Event, was not able to make it to Day 2 in 2008. He got involved in a raising war preflop against Joon Hee Yeah. All of the chips were soon in the middle, with Le the player at risk of elimination. He tabled pocket kings; Yeah showed ace-jack offsuit. A flop of was no help to Yeah, but he spiked an ace on the turn and dodged the two remaining kings when the river fell .
Le stood stunned at the table for a few seconds while the pot was pushed to Yeah, then walked away talking animatedly with a friend who had come to sweat the hand.
